Hammerpoint Talks the Size of The War Z

All told, The War Z should wind up providing a massive, zombie-filled world to run for you life and scavenge for food in. The devs at Hammerpoint are talking map size, and when The War Z launches, codename Colorado will provide 170km (105 miles) of playable terrain -- roughly the size of Chernarus in the DayZ mod if you take out the ocean. But it's important to note Hammerpoint describes Colorado as just the "first" map for The War Z. Yeah, this thing is going to be huge.

The War Z forums, Hammerpoint said that Colorado will be perfect for roughly 130 players to explore at once. When a server jumps over 200 players, though, it will seem much less like a zombie apocalypse, with players encountering other humans roughly every 15 minutes.

Along with the details, Hammerpoint released the first screens of Colorado. See them below and click for embiggenization:
